@Haunebu & @JSRAW, The 17th season of IPL will start tomorrow. I wasn't following the schedule of IPL, but I hope you guys were aware of it. Why haven't any of you tried to arrange a prediction pool with entry fee? Although a small number of forum members participate in the pool by sending the entry fee, but it would be interesting to participate in a pool with some of you.
Zimbabwe vs Kenya
The Mens African Games first semi-final match is over, with Namibia defeating Uganda to reach the final. The second semi-final match has started between Zimbabwe and Kenya. Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat. Zimbabwe collected 196 runs losing 5 wickets in the allotted overs. Clive Madande and Clive Madande both batted well scoring 41 and 42 runs respectively. Tashinga Musekiwa put in a brilliant performance at the end to take the team to the big target, scoring 39 off 10 balls. If the Zimbabwean bowlers perform well, Zimbabwe will win. Today, Zimbabwe are more likely to win. But it is seen which team wins in the end.
In first match, Bangladesh women won the toss and first decided bowling. Australia women batsman makes 6 run in 1 over and Bangladesh women bowler no any wicket against Australia women batsman. This is the good started for Australia women batsman. Bangladesh women bowler out the Australia women batsman in the first ball of the 2 over. This is the first achievement for Bangladesh women bowler. Once time again Bangladesh women out the Australia women batsman in the last ball of the 6 over. This is the second achievement for Bangladesh women bowler. Australia women batsman makes 30 run in 10 over and 3 outs. Australia women batsman are not working hard and struggle and can not make run. Australia women batsman makes 213 run in 50 over and 7 outs. This is the target for Bangladesh women batsman. This is the easy target for Bangladesh women batsman. Bangladesh women batsman can not complete this target and lose the match. The Mens African Games first semi-final match is over, with Namibia defeating Uganda to reach the final.

Aha, it's still Kohli vs X, Kohli vs Y. I feel bad for Faf lol, even in some footage I've seen from the RCB unboxing event it looked like Kohli took center stage, which is technically reserved for the captain.
Yeah. It's a great way to market these events and I doubt Faf and Ritu would mind any of this since they know how famous both of them. It's basically a war of 2 humungous fanbases and I am all for it.Also, news is coming up that Gaikwad is the new captain of CSK. Thala will fill out the entertainment quota.
Damn. I get why they did this, but I wanted MSD to stay as the captain until he retired since we all know what happened with Jaddu sometime back. 
In today's 2nd Semi-Final match of Zimbabwe vs Kenya team, Zimbabwe team came to bat and lost 5 wickets in 20 overs and set a target of 196 runs. Zimbabwe team managed to score the right runs to win the target of runs given by Zimbabwe team. Now Kenya team came to the field to bat. 4 overs. Kenya team has scored 43 runs but has not lost any wicket so far. If Zimbabwe team does well in the bowling line in this match, Kenya team will not be able to win the match.
In second semi final match Zimbabwe won by a huge margin of 70 runs against Kenya. Kenya's poor performance failed to chase the target and only managed to score 126 runs all out. The Player of the match is Tashinga Musekiwa for his outstanding all-round batting and bowling performance in this match. They scored 39 runs unbeaten from just 10 balls an outstanding batting innings that reached Zimbabwe total of 190 plus runs. In bowling, Musekiwa also picked one important wicket by Just giving 22 runs and Owen Muzondo also bowled well and picked up 4 crucial wickets.

Yeh Namabian team beat the Uganda with huge margin and qualified for final, I taught thier opponent will give them tough time because they are already undefeated but still they unable to deliver signficant results. while now his second semifinalist team Zimbabwe done his job by defeating his opponent with huge margin too and qualify for final, now according to team strength and moral I am sure that Zimbabwean side will get dominance over them, it's true Namabian side already delivered decent performance in recent past but when it come to face Zimbabwe they will surely surrender. It's not just confirmed results but my view but to be honest real results will depend on how they continue his momentum and tackle each and every obstacle.

Yes you are right not having important players in Namibian team makes them weaker but we can't say that they are not good. Every team has problems with injuries or missing players sometimes and other players need to do well. Uganda has all their best players and did well in recent matches so they are tough team to play against. But we should not say Namibia is not strong. If the team works together and players do their best Namibia can still do well in today match. By the way still we can't say anything Namibia players will fullfil the space of missing players or not but still they have chances of winning.
Yes today was the semi final match and these Namibia won the match by giving a target of 111 runs to Uganda. Nambiia batting performance was not so good but he won this match by doing good bowling performance especially Shikongo he took 2 wickets by giving 12 run in 4 overs and Klazinga also played very well he took 4 wickets by giving 19 run in 4 overs and he also made a score for his team and was awarded as a player of the match .
Kenya once again wasted a chance for redemption. Zimbabwe actually sent a second string side for African Games, captained by Clive Madande. Even then Kenya was unable to compete with them and lost the match by a very heavy margin. Owen Muzondo and Kudakwashe Macheka are relatively unknown players. Yet they destroyed the Kenyan batting lineup. And disappointing results for Uganda as well, as they lost to a second string Namibia side. The target was very low (112), but they got bowled out for 87 runs as Handre Klazinge took 4 wickets.

Kenya against Zimbabwe squad today semi final match, both these squads are stronger squads in African games competition and in yesterday, these squads fought with other squads and beated very badly and won with high difference of scores. In today second semi final match, toss already finished among sqauds and Zimbabwe won toss. Zimbabwe squad also has begun this match first with batting Inning and their performance in this inning was unbelievable because 199 scores collected in 20 overs which seem very dangerous defeating target. Kenya squad surely lost this match after seeing their current batting situation, 7 wickets lost and collected 109 scores in 16 overs and 88 scores remain off 4 overs for win this match. Kenya squad has start this match with impressive performance, Collins Obuya collected 52 scores but after losing wicket of Sukhdeep Singh and rest batter lost their wickets at very low scores.Zimbabwe had set an amazing target of 196. As soon as I saw this total, I knew Keyna would lose. But their start was pretty good. They had lost only 2 wickets in 71 runs after 8.3 overs of play. But after that, the wickets kept falling and Kenya could not do anything about that. The Required run rate before this wicket falling spree was somewhat under control. I was thinking Kenya might actually win this.
Zimbabwe were definitely the deserving winner of this match. In the other Semi-Final, Namibia has beaten Uganda by 24 runs. That match was a low-scoring match which was very much enjoyable.

Dhoni vs Kohli! What a way to kickoff IPL 2024. This is most probably Dhoni's final season which is probably why CSK is playing against RCB instead of GT in the first match of the season.
Franchise leagues are all about money, it's more likely they choose Dhoni and Kohli because these two are popular players, and they wanted to start IPL with a bang. GT was in final last year but don't have any star players (Gill is having some limelight but not as much as aforementioned two).
It's official! MSD is passing on the captaincy to Gaikwad. A very good decision from MSD, but this will be his last IPL. It's sad, but let's support Ruturaj Gaikwad, and hopefully, he proves to be the right choice. I'm sure he will improve as the games progress. Thala is going to shine this season.
IMO it's a good idea that they decided to give captaincy to Gaikwad while Dhoni is there, so he can mould him. This should also help prevent drastic change for the team.
Aha, it's still Kohli vs X, Kohli vs Y. I feel bad for Faf lol, even in some footage I've seen from the RCB unboxing event it looked like Kohli took center stage, which is technically reserved for the captain.
IKR, it has always felt like Kohli is leading RCB whoever captain may be, may be it's because he has been part of RCB for so long.
Dhoni vs Kohli! What a way to kickoff IPL 2024. This is most probably Dhoni's final season which is probably why CSK is playing against RCB instead of GT in the first match of the season.
It will be interesting seeing both teams play thanks to several new additions. Hope MSD bats in the middle order instead of the lower order this time around.

Well.. Namibia is one of the strongest associate nations, not just from Africa but also from around the world. Uganda has a long distance to go before they reach there. This tournament will also test the player depth in Namibia. Cricket in Namibia is mostly played by the German and Dutch speaking population, while the native Africans are not much interested in the sport. However in the squad for this tournament, they have a number of native players such as Simon Petrus Shikongo, Ben Shikongo, Addo Iita and Junior Kariata. This will help cricket to expand within Namibia.
Namibia is not strong, because many of their regular players are missing. JJ Smit, Ruben Trumpelmann and Bernard Scholtz are missing in the squad for this tournament. On the other hand, Uganda has fielded a full-strength side. And don't forget the fact that Uganda finished ahead of Zimbabwe in the T20 qualifiers. They are one of the African sides who are rapidly improving. The captain Brian Masaba is leading from the front, well supported by other players such as Riazat Ali Shah, Dinesh Nakrani, Frank Nsubuga, Roger Mukasa and Henry Ssenyondo.

One off tournaments 1st semi final will be played Uganda vs Namibia. Uganda team much stronger then Namibia they won all their group stage matches they played 3 matches and with 6 points are top on the table in stage A while it will be very hard for Namibia team to won this match they played 3 matches and won only single group stage match with 2 points thery are on 2nd position in points table due to positive of runrate they will qualify for semi final otherwise head to head record Namibia won more matches then Uganda they have best records against team Namibia the team who won will play final on Saturday

Yes it is clearly seen that the batsmen of the Ireland team did not bat well even many saw it directly in the field. The batsmen of the Ireland team could not maintain their batting consistency in the third T20 match as they batted in the previous matches. Ireland's main hope, one of their best batsman Harry Tector also failed to score enough runs.
In the third match, the Afghanistan team bowled well, which helped them defeat the Ireland team.The runs scored by Afghanistan against Ireland could have been surpassed if the Irish batsmen had been batting carefully.

When was the last time that any of the Irish batsmen performed consistently? Paul Stirling and Andy Balbirnie have been out of form for some time now. Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector have been showing a lot of promise, but their form is volatile. Curtis Campher is another promising player who has been inconsistent. Bowling is a little bit better, but then Josh Little is not always available for national duty. And that means that most of the burden needs to be borne by Mark Adair, Craig Young and Barry McCarthy.
